Abstract
According to one embodiment, a sound field control apparatus is provided with a control filter and a calculation unit. The filter executes an FIR computation for an acoustic signal using coefficients to output a main signal and control signals. The unit calculates the main coefficient and the coefficients based on Spatial transmission characteristics and a sound increase factor n, to set a composite sound pressure from a main speaker and control speakers to a first area to be n times of a coming sound pressure from only the main speaker, and to set a composite sound pressure from the main speaker and control speakers to a second area to be equal to the coming sound pressure from only the main speaker.
